The Balanced CEO

On this ep of the poddy, I talk about the pressure people put on themselves during the holiday season and why it’s time to stop giving a f*ck. I share my thoughts on letting people be, dropping the expectations, and allowing yourself to actually enjoy the time instead of trying to make it look or feel a certain way. I also touch briefly on my own experience around this time of year and what it’s taught me about protecting your energy, being present, and choosing what actually matters. Enjoy!

In this episode, I’m sharing some real and raw reflections from my own life. Navigating dating, running multiple businesses, and building emotional resilience along the way. I open up about something I have never publicly spoken about I talk about what I’m learning about myself in this season, the highs and lows of dating, and the honest lessons that come with being an entrepreneur juggling a lot at once.I open up about the importance of taking aligned action, staying connected to the people who matter, and choosing kindness - in relationships, in business, and in the way we show up for ourselves and each other.

This episode is NOT your typical polite wellness chat — it’s raw, hilarious, sweary, and packed with uncomfortable truths you won’t unhear.I sit down with Benson from Benson Detox, and we dive headfirst into the wild world of nutrition: why most people are eating breakfast like they’re fuelling for a marathon (but aren’t moving their bodies at all), the hidden sugar traps disguised as “health foods,” and how the narratives we’re fed about diet are often outdated, misleading, or straight-up backwards.We explore the politics of nutrition, the fearmongering around fat, the shocking impact of sugar on your hormones, mood, and cholesterol - and the part of the conversation that genuinely blew my mind and has never been shared before. No names, but… let’s just say some systems don’t like being questioned.Inside this episode, we unpack:Why your go-to “healthy breakfast” might be wrecking your energyAre oats and bananas actually helpful — or just glorified sugar bombs?Why we were told to fear fat (and what we should’ve been watching instead)Glucose spikes, cravings, mood swings & the truth behind themThe difference between eating for performance vs. eating out of habitHow to think for yourself when the wellness industry profits from confusionThe eyebrow-raising politics behind who gets to decide what’s “healthy”It’s equal parts science, sass, and “holy sh*t, did he just say that?”Find Benson Detox here:Benson Detox InstagramBenson Dinner InstagramBenson Detox Website
